The two of them have been eating food from space and drinking spiritual springs from space every day recently. Their skin is white and tender, and they put on this lipstick.
Gee, that’s beautiful.
She couldn't help but want to rush up and give him a kiss.
"Mom, this lipstick is so easy to use. After applying it, I become much more beautiful."
"good."
Being as stingy as Lin Li, I finally gave it a good rating this time.
This 'not bad' made Lin Jiuniang raise her eyebrows, "Lin Li, it's rare to hear you say it's not bad."
Lin Li snorted coldly, "If I weren't afraid of your pride and your tail sticking up to the sky, I would have said, 'This stuff is really good.'"
These words!
Damn it!
Lin Jiuniang rolled her eyes, put a smile on her face, and asked kindly:
"Didn't you ask me before about the bugs on the cactus, what's the point of paying someone to catch them?"
"Do not want to know."
Lin Li, who lowered her head and played with her lipstick, refused to know.
joke.
It's definitely not a good thing that she suddenly mentioned this matter.
Lin Keni didn't want to know either, for fear of making her uncomfortable.
After so long, they have more or less learned some of her mother's tricks.
If she takes the initiative to bring it up, it will definitely be up to no good.
If you don’t want to be fooled, it’s best not to have any curiosity.
Lin Jiuniang raised her eyebrows and chuckled:
"I must tell you.
This is a good project to make a fortune. If you are unfortunate enough to live on the streets in the future, you might be able to make a lot of money from this."
"I believe you are a ghost," Lin Li despised.
Can some little bugs still make money?
Haha, can fallen leaves also be sold for money?
Only a fool would believe her!
"Don't believe it?" Lin Jiuniang raised her eyebrows.
Seeing the two of them shaking their heads resolutely, they said with a smile:
"Guess how much money I need to buy for this lipstick?"
Lin Li and Lin Keni looked at each other, and finally Lin Keni said:
"One or two?"
Lin Jiuniang snorted coldly, "Is my lipstick so cheap? Who are you looking down on?
Let me tell you, the prices of the three colors, from light to dark, are ten taels, fifteen taels, and twenty taels respectively."
Lin Keni opened her mouth wide.
Stuttering, "Mom, it's so expensive, will anyone buy it?"
No more, she felt that her heart was being stimulated and she couldn't bear it.
The price of one lipstick is enough to feed a family for a year!
Lin Jiuniang raised the corners of her lips confidently, "Most people can't afford this lipstick.
My target customers are the daughters of wealthy families and noble ladies. Therefore, the price is definitely not expensive.
I dare say there are still many people who want to buy it!”
Lin Keni glanced at the three lipsticks in her hand, swallowed nervously, and suddenly they were heavy, forty-five taels.
In the past, forty-five taels would have been enough for their family for several years.
luxury.
Lin Li is relatively sober and despises:
"No matter how expensive your lipstick is, so what? What does it have to do with the cochineal bug on the cactus?"
She remembered that Lin Jiuniang had said before that this bug was called rouge red.
Also, she really couldn't help but want to despise her.
A piece of cactus flower has deceived so many people.
And her ultimate goal is not the flower, so evil!
"Who said it doesn't matter?" Lin Jiuniang raised her eyebrows, "The lipstick you just put on was made of this cochineal insect.
What, I haven't thought about it.
Such a tiny insect can actually make such beautiful lipstick!”
Lin Li and Lin Keni's bodies instantly stiffened.
He looked at the lipstick in his hand with disbelief. Is it all made of cochineal?
Lin Li felt nauseated instantly.
So, she just wiped the insect corpses and blood on her lips.
Maybe they even got it into their stomachs when they were swallowing.
His eyes looked at Lin Jiuniang, who was talking endlessly about the making method, and looked at the corners of her slightly raised mouth...
He quickly turned his head.
No more!
Looking at her arrogant look, Lin Li was afraid that she wouldn't be able to help but punch her.
Lin Keni said with a sad face, "Mom, please stop talking.
Besides, I'm about to throw up, I feel like I've eaten a mouthful of worms."
After saying that, he quickly took out his handkerchief and wiped his mouth.
Ha ha!
Seeing the ugly looks on their faces, Lin Jiuniang burst out laughing.
Hum hum, I can’t tease you yet!
Seeing that Lin Li was so angry that she was about to hit someone, Lin Jiuniang stopped laughing.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore.
This is not made directly from insect corpses. The insect's body contains a large amount of carmine. The carmine is extracted through special processing and then processed into this lipstick.
If you really use this insect to make lipstick, you won’t be afraid of being sprayed to death, how silly.”
Lin Jiuniang felt horrified when she thought about it. Suddenly, when she was applying lipstick, there was an insect corpse in her lipstick.
Who doesn't feel horrified and disgusting?
Lin Li's expressions softened somewhat.
Although I feel a little uncomfortable, I can't put it down because of its beauty.
Lin Keni thought more and looked at Lin Jiuniang with some worry:
"Mom, if the person who buys it later learns that this lipstick uses pigment extracted from this insect, will there be trouble?"
Lin Jiuniang glanced at Lin Keni appreciatively.
This girl is thinking more and more carefully about things.
She had already considered this issue.
The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, "In front of beauty, these will be ignored.
Besides, this is my business secret, who would tell it everywhere?
Furthermore, this is an edible pigment. It doesn’t matter if you eat it, not just for applying lipstick.
How about I make some delicious food for you to try next time?"
"No, mother," Lin Keni immediately refused.
Sorry, she hasn't gotten over this hurdle yet.
"Pity!"
Lin Jiuniang shook her head, turned and walked towards the kitchen. It was time to make beef jerky.
Lin Keni sat next to Lin Li in fear:
"Lin Li, I don't think we can eat anything red during the next period of time."
With her mother's personality, she would probably treat them to food processed by these insects.
Lin Li's face darkened and she nodded seriously.
She thinks so too.
I won’t touch any red food these days!
Lin Jiuniang, who had made fun of Lin Li and the others, was in a good mood at this time.
Humming a little tune, working on her beef in the kitchen.
Seeing such good beef, she thought of steak.
The steak was so tender and juicy that Lin Jiuniang was a little greedy.
Just do it if you think of it!
Find the meat suitable for making steak, immediately cut off a few pieces and put them aside. Prepare to cut other beef and marinate it before making steak.
Thinking that these beef jerky were prepared for Xu Yu, Lin Jiuniang's mood was always high.
It wasn't until I finished cutting all the beef that my hands felt sore and tired.
Next is marinating.
Looking at the large plate of marinated beef in front of her, Lin Jiuniang suddenly felt proud.
But while looking at the meat, she thought of another way to make money.
Dried meat.
Gyeongju City has an especially abundant supply of beef and mutton.
If it is processed into dried meat and sold to various places in Daye, it is also a good business.
I’ll think about this again when I have time.
Now!
Lin Jiuniang looked at the pieces of beef in front of her with a smile. She wanted to make steak.
Medium rare steak!
Lin Jiuniang smiled, and with a snap, the back of the knife hit the beef directly.
Get started!
She wanted them to have an unforgettable meal.
Just as Lin Jiuniang was happily preparing for tonight's surprise dinner, Lin Tao ran in in a hurry:
"Ms. Lin, something happened.
I received news that the prince was ambushed on his way to Baoji Town."
"What?"
Lin Jiuniang was startled and did not notice the knife, and accidentally made a cut on her hand.
pain!
But Lin Jiuniang couldn't care less.
Throwing the knife away, he pressed his hand firmly on the wound and stared at Lin Tao with gloomy eyes:
